Overview:

The Hellwig Helper Spring Kit is engineered to enhance the load-carrying capability of Dodge Ram 2500 (2003–2013) and Ram 3500 (2003–2023) trucks equipped with factory contact overload springs. Designed to provide additional support as your vehicle carries heavy loads, these helper springs engage sooner than the factory springs alone, reducing sag and improving stability. Ideal for truck owners who frequently haul or tow, the Hellwig kit ensures your Ram maintains a level stance under load without compromising ride quality when unloaded.

By supplementing the factory overload springs, the Hellwig Helper Springs deliver increased spring rate only when needed, preserving the factory ride comfort during normal driving conditions. This makes them a practical upgrade for drivers seeking improved load support without sacrificing daily drivability.

• Increases the effective spring rate only under load conditions

Construction & Design:

Hellwig Helper Springs are crafted from high-quality steel leaves engineered to complement the factory contact overload springs. The additional leaves are precision-formed to engage the factory contact pads sooner, providing a progressive increase in spring rate as the load increases.

The robust construction and corrosion-resistant finish guarantee durability and long-lasting performance, even under the demanding conditions of heavy hauling and towing. Hellwig’s engineering focus on seamless integration with factory components ensures reliable operation without the need for modifications.
